This is the ninth in a series of images of New Orleans neighborhoods
taken in February 2010 the weekend before the Super Bowl victory and two weeks
for Mardi Gras. I certainly did not have time to cover them all but this series
will provide a glimpse of the city that I hope you will want to visit.
Magazine Street is a great shopping street full of antique stores, funky boutiques, restaurants, clubs and many other things. You can see Tee-Eva's a wonderful Creole food stand at 5201 Magazine shown below. Magazine Street is very long so I divided the images into two sections. These photos were taken west of Jackson Avenue toward the New Orleans Audubon Park where I first played golf as a kid and Audubon Zoo featured in the next post. You can click on an image to enlarge it.
I was astonished when my friend Rebecca first brought me down Magazine Street, it went on forever, gloriously, kaleidoscopically. Love the selection, waitin' for part two.

Paul. Thanks. It was like this in the 50s with funk antique stores and shops. Bill
